I am just wondering what can cause a clicking noise after my truck starts, that lasts about 1 to 2 seconds and then stops. It doesn't happen all the time, sometimes goes 2 or 3 days without happening

Sounds like from the front of the engine, it's hard to tell exactly because it only does it for about 1 or 2 seconds

Could it be a lifter ticking for a few seconds until oil pressure is reached?
